Related to https://b.corp.google.com/issues/423605555 - I figured this might be a simpler solution to start with, while still also being useful on its own even if we do implement that.
Similar to ctrl+c, ctrl+d can now be used to exit the program. To avoid accidental exit, ctrl+d must be pressed twice in relatively quick succession (same as ctrl+c).
Following common UX pattern, ctrl+d will be ignored when the input prompt is non-empty. This behavior is similar to how most shell (bash/zsh) behaves. To support this, I had to refactor so that text buffer is initialized outside of the InputPrompt component and instead do it on the main App component to allow input controller to have access to check the content of the text buffer.
This change introduces a small delay after the first Ctrl+C press, prompting the user to press Ctrl+C again to exit. This helps prevent accidental termination of the application.
- Added `exitOnCtrlC={false}` to the Ink render options in `gemini.tsx` to enable custom Ctrl+C handling.
- Implemented logic in `App.tsx` to:
- Display "Press Ctrl+C again to exit." for 2 seconds after the first Ctrl+C.
- Exit the application if Ctrl+C is pressed again during this period.
- Revert to normal operation if the second Ctrl+C is not pressed within the timeout.
- Defined a constant `CTRL_C_PROMPT_DURATION_MS` for the timeout duration.
No intentional different behavior aside for tweaks suggested from the code review of #506 Refactor: Extract console message logic to custom hook
This commit refactors the console message handling from App.tsx into a new custom hook useConsoleMessages.
This change improves the testability of the console message logic and declutters the main App component.
Created useConsoleMessages.ts to encapsulate console message state and update logic.
Updated App.tsx to utilize the new useConsoleMessages hook.
Added unit tests for useConsoleMessages.ts to ensure its functionality.
I deleted and started over on LoadingIndicator.test.tsx as I spent way too much time trying to fix it before just regenerating the tests as the code was easier to write tests for from scratch and the existing tests were not that good (I added them in the previous pull request).
Adds the following conventional readline-like keybindings:
- `Ctrl+H`: Delete the previous character.
- `Ctrl+D`: Delete the next character.
Additionally, remaps the Debug Console command from Ctrl+D to Ctrl+O, which had been first introduced in PR #486.
This change adds keybinding support for:
- `Ctrl+B`: Moves the cursor backward one character.
- `Ctrl+F`: Moves the cursor forward one character.
- `Alt+Left Arrow`: Moves the cursor backward one word.
- `Alt+Right Arrow`: Moves the cursor forward one word.
Closes b/411469305.
- The shell command processor was incorrectly truncating the first
character of the command (e.g., 'ls' became 's') due to an
erroneous `slice(1)` operation, likely introduced during a
previous merge. This change removes the slice, ensuring the full
command is processed.
- Introduces unit tests for the shellCommandProcessor hook.
- Fixes a minor grammatical issue in the display of GEMINI.md file count.
- Prevents slash commands from being triggered and suggestions from being displayed when shell mode is active. This ensures that user input is correctly interpreted as shell commands.

This commit introduces a new ShellModeIndicator component to visually signify when shell mode is active.
- Displays "shell mode enabled (! to toggle)" in the UI.
- The AutoAcceptIndicator is now hidden when shell mode is active to prevent UI clutter.
- Implements a toggleable shell mode, removing the need to prefix every command with `!`.
- Users can now enter and exit shell mode by typing `!` as the first character in an empty input prompt.
- The input prompt visually indicates active shell mode with a distinct color and `! ` prefix.
- Shell command history items (`user_shell`) are now visually differentiated from regular user messages.
- This provides a cleaner and more streamlined user experience for frequent shell interactions.

- The auto-accept edits indicator was appearing in two places:
once next to the loading indicator and again in the CWD bar.
- This was introduced when the CWD bar was made always visible.
- This commit removes the duplicate indicator, leaving only the one
in the CWD bar.
Fixes https://b.corp.google.com/issues/418498237
- This commit addresses an issue where the Current Working Directory (CWD) and the auto-accept indicator were not consistently visible, especially when tool confirmations were displayed.
- Previously, the CWD could be hidden during tool confirmation prompts, potentially leading to confusion about the context in which Gemini CLI was operating.
Fixes https://b.corp.google.com/issues/414289185
- This commit introduces a visual indicator in the CLI to show when auto-accept for tool confirmations is enabled. Users can now also toggle this setting on/off using Shift + Tab.
- This addresses user feedback for better visibility and control over the auto-accept feature, improving the overall user experience.
- This behavior is similar to Claude Code, providing a familiar experience for users transitioning from that environment.
- Added tests for the new auto indicator hook.
Fixes https://b.corp.google.com/issues/413740468
- Patches `console.debug` in `ConsolePatcher.tsx` to capture debug messages.
- Updates `ConsoleOutput` to only display debug messages when `debugMode` is enabled.
- Passes `debugMode` prop from `App.tsx` to `ConsoleOutput`.
Fixes https://github.com/google-gemini/gemini-cli/issues/397
This commit addresses several code review comments primarily focused on improving the rendering and stability of the CLI UI.
Key changes include:
- Passing `isPending` and `availableTerminalHeight` props to `MarkdownDisplay` to enable more intelligent rendering of content, especially for pending messages and code blocks.
- Adjusting height calculations in `ToolGroupMessage` and `ToolMessage` to more accurately reflect available space.
- Refining the logic in `App.tsx` for measuring and utilizing terminal height, including renaming `footerRef` to `mainControlsRef` for clarity.
- Ensuring consistent prop drilling for `isPending` and `availableTerminalHeight` through `HistoryItemDisplay`, `GeminiMessage`, and `GeminiMessageContent`.
- In `MarkdownDisplay`, when `isPending` is true and content exceeds `availableTerminalHeight`, the code block will now be truncated with a "... generating more ..." message. If there's insufficient space even for the
message, a simpler "... code is being written ..." will be shown.
This commit introduces several changes to better manage terminal height and prevent UI tearing, especially when displaying long tool outputs or when the pending history item exceeds the available terminal height.
- Calculate and utilize available terminal height in `App.tsx`, `HistoryItemDisplay.tsx`, `ToolGroupMessage.tsx`, and `ToolMessage.tsx`.
- Refresh the static display area in `App.tsx` when a pending history item is too large, working around an Ink bug (see https://github.com/vadimdemedes/ink/pull/717).
- Truncate long tool output in `ToolMessage.tsx` and indicate the number of hidden lines.
- Refactor `App.tsx` to correctly measure and account for footer height.
Fixes https://b.corp.google.com/issues/414196943
New keybindings in the main input prompt (when auto-suggestions are not active):
- `Ctrl+L`: Clears the entire screen.
- `Ctrl+A`: Moves the cursor to the beginning of the current input line.
- `Ctrl+E`: Moves the cursor to the end of the current input line.
- `Ctrl+P`: Navigates to the previous command in the input history.
- `Ctrl+N`: Navigates to the next command in the input history.
In the multiline text editor (e.g., when editing a previous message):
- `Ctrl+K`: Deletes text from the current cursor position to the end of the line ("kill line right").
